I started Enderal in VR and it's mind-blowing 😲

First: Did the quests bring me to most places specialy in the first Area or should I explore everything before i go to ark? If the quests bring me back later to the places I would go on with the quests.

Second: I found out i can improve my weapons and stuff but it says i don't got the level to improve yet. So I level up but can't find a way to see wich level I need to upgrade a specific weapon. Maybe it's a specific VR problem as UI is a bit different. I can't see anything that says you need that level for that weapon.

Thanks for help!

Two moments in particular stand out

1. Firespark’s insanity and horror - by communicating with the spirit of the temple (who is aware of the cycle and what causes it, but can never stop or break it and is forever trapped, slowly growing more and more insane and never able to die) he gets a glimpse of how truly hopeless and bleak the situation is, and even the glimpse is enough to drive him insane with grief.

And of course

2. Finding the bodies of Sirius and you. The REAL you. Because you’re not real. You’re an emissary made by the High Ones. On my first playthrough I thought something along the lines of “Okay, I get what they were going for, but that’s not a particularly scary illusion. Kind of sad, but still.” But in retrospect? Stumbling upon your real corpse? Dark and brilliant storytelling.

God, the more I explore this game again the more the aura of finality and disempowerment that hangs over the whole world makes sense. Even in the mundane towns and stories there’s this…. miasma for lack of a better world. It’s not just that this is a #darkgame™️, it’s so much bigger than that.

You’re not the hero who will save the day and change the world - you’re the tool by which the world will end. Just as planned. As it had hundreds upon hundreds of times before.

Is there a chance you can change it?

Maybe?

Damn I love this game.

Does anyone know how to fix it? Everytime I leave the dungeon I crash during loading immediately.

Enderal has many interesting what-if scenarios to be talking about but lately, after several playthrough, I've come to think about Constantine Bushy-Beard's demise during the Living Temple expedition.

What do you think what would've changed if he actually survived the temple and kept on with us to Halfmoon Isle? Would his ability prevent us from getting caught during the espionage? or there would be no difference and he'd most likely be killed for his important role (Coarek probably knew him) For what we all know. He doesn't seem to be a stealthy/spy type at all.

• Interesting point here is, in my opinion, if the Prophet and Jespar weren't get caught, the Nehrimese army assault would be stalled for a bit while. Moreso, if we managed to put the wireless speaker plate in their camp, the Holy order would've known of their surprise attack and might be able to hold the harbour, give them a bit more time to figure things out.

If not, and the mission was success with no casualty, how would the situation afterward be much different? About a traitor within his order, I'm sure Lishora would've discussed the matter with Firespark before (or together with) the Prophet (and not doing it in a goddamn tavern of course) Yuslan'd probably tried to off them both still though, I think this part may not matter that much since she got the wrong guy anyway (I might misintepret this part. Pls, correct me if I'm wrong)

Lastly, who do you think was behind Firespark's rapid descent to madness? The Living Temple or the High Ones. The game made it obvious it was the Living Temple manipulating him into trying to kill us and prevent the cycle but I have my doubt still. His death seems to favor High Ones the most. I know his eyes didn't glow red when it happened but I think that's not the case sometimes and he has his trauma to be manipulated.

Edit: got her name wrong.

I've noticed a couple of really strange, or more like off-putting things that I can't say for sure if it's just a coincidence, or intended.

It started with the quest Dark Chambers of our Mind, in fact. Before meeting Tharael at his safehouse, I noticed there was a female bard singing a somber tune right outside his place. Her skin was decayed and pale, and since I've never seen this npc in all my time in the Undercity. Then it came to me all of a sudden to try out the "Detect Life" spell, which, up until this moment, has always highlighted living npcs in the vicinity. I got no such reaction out of her.

Then there's Silvergrove, which, right after the sphere game with Ryneus, I noticed something even stranger, it's like time has stopped. I arrived at morning and it's pretty well known that in-game time passes much faster obviously. I also got the mod "It's a Matter of Time" and the clock barely moves an inch, which seems to support this theory.

Finally, there's this little girl who keeps walking in circles humming the tune of the Pathless Wanderer nonstop, and as I remembered my previous experience with Tharael's quest, I tried it again. Sure enough, my Detect Life spell didn't have an effect, not with her, Ryneus, the other kids or "Daddy" (oh god).

I'm about to collect butterflies for this rascal and surely these questions will answer themselves in time, or maybe I'm just high on glimmerdust and sound like an idiot rambling on about this sequence of coincidences, but... I just can't keep away this eerie surreal feeling about Silvergrove. Like, my Prophetess has really gone over the edge.

So I've done the one for Ark, and Riverville and finished their Bounty Board quest lines but where do I find the one for Duneville for I know it exist, for the Enderal SE wiki shows it.

Help!!!

I´m planing on using a wabbajack mod list for Enderal and was wondering if they are any good. I´m a fan of mods and used some UI and texture mods for Enderal in the past but a 100+ list is another thing entirely. So any insight and/or opinions are welcome. Thanks

I've just finished this quest and wanted to share my experience as I saw online many people claiming the quest is buggy, which is not. However there is a trick to kill the assassins

After their psionic shields are destroyed and BOTH (that's mandatory) are kneeling you simply have to keep attacking them. This will lead to killing them fairly quickly

Does Enderal SE support the moveset mods? Tried looking everywhere on google but no luck

My title explains my experience. 10/10.

I enjoyed every “side quest” from Novice Elia to Esme. From Jespar to Calia. From life to death. Such a beautiful game. \

Edit: I said "side quest" cuz it feels like most side quests lead to something impactful. SureAI hardly wasted a moment for this game.

Samael, an npc from Silvergrove, said "this is a beautiful spot we have here on Earth." Am I mistaken or is the name of the planet Vyn? Pretty odd oversight. Amazing game so far though.

I want high quality content like Enderal, any suggestions?

The Enderal audiobook appears to be the best of its kind. I haven't found an audiobook that has such good narration and immersion. I have been looking around for months to find something similar, but nothing comes even close.

Would be nice if they released something like The Butcher audiobook as well. I tried using alltalk_tts, works, but it doesn't have the same emotional vibrancy in the voices that the real voice actors could produce.

Anyhow, I will also contribute with my list of god-tier games similar to Enderal in some aspects, meaning they have that "special something"

- The Council
- The forgotten city
- Call of the sea
- Argonus and the Gods of Stone
- Sanitarium

- Subnautica 2
- Tainted Grail

- SOMA
- Amnesia
- Talos principle
- Anchorhead (text based)

- Morrowind
- Vampire The Masquerade

- Eastshade
- Tacoma
- Fatum Betula
- The station

I just started the game, but I feel a bit rushed to the next story point because exploring is so difficult. Every other fight I die, and need to rety it 2 - 3 times.

I have just reached Yero's house and found a pirate cove nearby. On my way there I died, and inside I died even harder.

Skyrim may not have had great writing, but the exploration kept me hooked till today, 13 years on from release.

Any tips on getting stronger in Enderal? Should I just lower the difficulty? I'm currently playing on the standard adept difficulty.

Hi I am currently trying to install this mod for enderal special edition, but it doesnt seem to work. There is no crash or error message or anything, it just doesnt work. I have insalled all the requirements plus the new enderal fix, but still nothing. It doesnt even show up in the modmenu. Maximum carnage works perfectly fine, so I am not sure why its not working. Do I need to do something different ?

Edit. Found the solution. I just installed The Maxium Destruction Mod . Its working

So I've been a fan of the Vyn series for going on years now, and I beat Nehrim I think Last year and now finally back playing Enderal.

But lately during combat the screen and the whole game is frozen mid combat then goes back to normal combat. It's so annoying!

So can you all help me out?

I just started my 1st playthrough of Enderal (unmodded), and I'm running into a couple of issues:

The character has a very visible neckseam (i know that's a problem with how Skyrim itself handles body and head meshes, but its like 2 completely different colors).

The other issue I'm having is being seemingly unable to reenter 1st person view after leaving it.

https://imgur.com/a/KMNYvFI

Does anyone know a fix for this?? The neckseam i can live with, but not being able to use 1st person camera is a bit of a bummer

Unrelated but i find it funny how the quest marker says "i need to find Daddy" and the MC is this super buff dude

Hey, I have a bug after the Fleshless mission, no matter what decision I make (escape, or destruction), in each option my character freezes and I can't move, I can't open the equipment, reach the weapon. Immediately after talking to Calia. Has anyone perhaps had a similar problem?
I tried to teleport to the temple of the sun using the “coc” command, but also zero response

I'm on the quest, "The Void" after finding Yero's lockbox and talking with his friend, after which I'm supposed to meet up with Jespar and tell him what I discovered about Yero and what caused him to kill everyone - so if you haven't done this yet, don't read the following:

I followed Jespar into Yero's basement, and made our way to Yero's journal. Jespar crouched down to look for clues, and I picked up Yero's journal and read it, and after the spoken words ended and I stole the book, Jespar started a dialogue with me. I then had the option to to end the dialogue with one of two choices- however, I regretted the choice I made as it hurt Jespar's feelings. I wanted a redo of this dialogue, so I hit 'Esc' and chose to interrupt the dialogue and close the game so I could start up a save before that dialogue and try again...

Unfortunately, when I picked up and read the journal until the voiceover was done, and turned to Jespar after, he didn't talk to me. He just stood there and looked at me. I tried to talk to him, but I could no longer interact with him! Pressing "E" did nothing!

I then loaded up an even earlier save where I was standing outside Yero's house, before talking with Jespar in the basement, and found I could still interact with objects via looting, but could no longer interact with the rat's bodies by looting them after killing them. Pressing 'E' does nothing on Humans and Creatures.

I even tried a save even further back in the game, talking with the Blacksmith in Riverville, and pressing 'E' did nothing.

I searched online and someone suggested opening the console, clicking on the skin of Jespar and entering the commands "disable", "endable", and "moveto player" and it just reset Jespar on top of me, and I still couldn't talk to him and he wont say any of his quest dialogue.

I don't and never had any mods installed, and the only console cheat I had turned on was "tgm".

Can anyone help me? I really don't want to have to start this game from the beginning.

Is there any working auto harvest mods for Enderal SE on Steam? I like alchemy but its tedious to always stare at the ground to find the plants instead of actually looking around at the beautiful environments. I've tried Iharvest, Autoloot, AutoHarvest, Smart Harvest, and a few others but I can't get any to actually work. Sure they load but they don't do the actual harvesting or looting even after messing with the in game settings. Am I just dumb and missing something? I was able to get it working years ago pre-Steam and it was lovely.

I’m about 35 hours in, and I’ve just gotten into the Sun Temple. I’ve been having so much fun exploring Ark and the surrounding areas, it’s so immersive and just, alive.

Additionally, as a German, finding out that Germans made this mod makes total sense, lol.

Hi! I saw about this game a few years ago but never gave It a chance now I'm interested but I cant with Skyrim combat anymore... Apparently Nemesis bugs some scenes so what about Pandora? Also do you have any mod recommendations? Just texture and lighting things plz

I have been Skyrim's fan since the very beginning, still probably my favourite game ever, but Enderal about which I learnt few weeks ago is how games should be done: dialouges are much richer, quests more interesting, the main story is truly fascinating and I can't wait to find out where does it lead to
I also really like that the is challenging: I played Skyrim on all diffculties plus survival mode, so I am a seasoned player and yet Enderal taught me humility, even at level 22 I quite often I have to think hard how to overcome some enemies. And since I read some posts here I know it doesn't get any easier, which is awesome
Sure, Enderal has weak points, but in general is absolutely stunning game, one I happily would give 9/10
Thank you creators for this experience

I'm sorry but this game, for as much as it does right, is completely ruined for me by the senseless enemy density.

It feels bad from a gameplay pacing perspective, makes no sense from a realism perspective, nor does it even fit the world it is building.

There are cave trolls within a stones throw from town, next to bandit camps with a thousand packs of wolves surrounding.

Why are there 3 highway bandit camps in a row on the same tiny road with no traffic? How does the middle bandit ever get any loot?

There is just simply no room to breathe. Not even on the road.

I fully expect to be flamed as a casual who doesn't like good RPGs and to go back to skyrim, but this just feels awful.

Honest take.

Accidentally attacked a guard and now they attack on sight so I chose the prison option. How do I get out of here or do they let you out after a certain amount of time? Internet won’t give me a straight answer

I haven't played Enderal in VR for a few years but last time I did the werewolf wasn't working. Has anyone played in VR recently that can let me know if it does or doesn't work in VR nowadays?

So, since my last post I decided to put the main story on halt after finishing the Lion's Den and focus on side quests, you know, to have a bit of a breather after experiencing such a monumental loss and horrific revelation. And thought the Dust Arena questline would be a good idea since another user kindly recommended it to me.

Boy was I wrong. I mean I still loved every minute of it but I'm even more internally destroyed than the last time. Well then, spoilers ahead.

Where to even start... there's so much to unpack here! Ok, how about this:

!We didn't fail, Tharaêl, I did. I failed you and I'm truly sorry. I followed your plan to kill the Father to the letter, from showing absolute respect in the Rhalâta Temple, to killing Sister Pride even if I didn't want to. I did so because I had an inkling it wouldn't be that easy to fool the First Seer or the Father with another heart, and Tharaêl agreed. I expected a tough fight against her as she monologued her reasons for betraying the Rhalâta, but what I found was a frail and insane woman at the end of her rope. Her reasons for such a state of mind were beyond horrifying, and it reminded me of Jespar's recurrent nightmares of watching his late father pass judgement onto him as the skin on his face melts off like hot wax. Only that she was afflicted with these hallucinations in her daily life.!<

!There's also the matter of Qalian... who I was even less willing to kill. Sister Pride was a necessary hit, that is to gain the approval of the Father. However, Qalian was a personal mark for Tharaêl, and as I saw how meek and miserable he led his new life, having separated from his former self by adopting a new personality as Naliaq, living was more than enough punishment for him. But still, I succumbed and agreed that he deserved death. When Tharaêl told me the story of the Night of the Blind Daughters, I was truly at a loss for words, and my decision was made.!<

!Then came the Excavation Site, and nothing, and I mean nothing could have prepared me for what I found in its depths. The Prophetess truly can't catch a single break for what transpired in her early childhood, can she? Not only are her nightmares getting even worse. ("Aren't we beautiful?") But now the temple actively torments her for it. The other mercenary, Zar'Ah, also seemed to have a rough time facing her demons. This is where I really started to respect Tharaêl and his determination to see this through, as he was the only one to keep himself grounded in reality and to reassure his companions that they were only just illusions. I can just picture my Prophetess being shell-shocked and hesitant to fire the first arrow at a giant version of her Daddy, only for Tharaêl to pull her into action rather forcefully.!<

!I do wonder about something though. The first illusion that attacked our group was that other Keeper initiate, Calia, I think. When Zar'Ah asked who I had seen, my Prophetess regarded her as someone very important to her. I wonder if it's because I have the highest "friendship" points with her. Because even if I like Jespar the most up till now, he hasn't always liked my answers. He has a dead set pragmatic view of the world, no doubt a result of the experiences and upbringing he had, and I sure let him know when I disagreed with him, so maybe I lost some closeness with him with my idealistic postures, oh well.!<

!I digress. This is also where I started to see Tharaêl as something of a spiritual brother. They've both led vastly different lives, yet they've also suffered through unimaginable trauma from an early life. At times it felt like I was babysitting Tharaêl, like when he regressed into his childhood at the Refuge. Other times he called out my Prophetess for asking very stupid questions while also being clear and concise of the reasoning behind every word and action he took. There were also several ocassions when I disagreed with him, immensely, and for this reason he's also a hard person to please, and easy to offend. Thus, I often went for the answers that brought out neutral responses from him. Maybe that was my real nature translating into my dialogue choices, as I really try not to be confrontational with people in real life.!<

!But I sure didn't see this coming. When Tharaêl went off on his own claiming he heard another brother for help. I completely let my guard down and was caught in conversation getting to know Zar'Ah, so when I saw an arrow pierce the side of her neck, I immediately drew my sword and shield ready to be met with an ambush of Rhalâim who saw through our plan. But when I saw Tharaêl... oh I was fucking livid. I almost called him a heartless bastard for it, but went with the most neutral (and passive agressive) response, "I really hope this was worth it." I knew we had to get rid of the mercenary in our group for the plan to go off without a hitch, and damn it! Why did it have to be a likable lass like Zar'Ah? Why couldn't it have been an unlikable scumbag?!<

!At the very least, it was bittersweet to see Zar'Ah's spirit waiting for the taking. This is the thing about Phasmalism, or at least, my theory or headcanon more like. It became clear to me that my Prophetess was given this role for a reason, judging from the quest "Into the Deep", and she has a ticking time bomb inside her that will cut her life woefully short as soon as her role is completed. And these phantoms she sees might not have been righteous people in life, but they weren't irredeemable wicked people either, because they didn't turn into Lost Ones (at least, that's what the bard songs and The Path's scriptures say). I've collected like 10 or 11 phantasms so far, an old vagrant here, a nobleman there, a bandit leader- ok that one might have been pretty bad. So my theory is that all of these phantasms can atone for their sins in life by helping my Prophetess in her quest, and when Malphas calls, they can all pass on to the Endless Paths.!<

!So anyways, even though I was still incredibly pissed at Tharaêl, we finally arrive at the final chamber before the Room of Paintings. And wow, that boss fight... turns out that calling the previous "Daddy" a giant was understatement of the century. As I readied my bow and scrambled to think how to best fight this monstrosity, running in circles, I got jumpscared as a couple of explosions went off and my Prophetess tumbled to the floor like a ragdoll, still burning, as the last thing that rung in her ears was a booming "BRING ME A NICE CRISP PIECE OF MEAT" multiple times as her life faded away. I'm pretty sure all of this was a big coincidence but man, it made for a truly grimdark cinematic moment. Round 2 I realized there were fire circles scattered throughout, which made the actual fight kind of annoying but not nearly as hard as I thought it'd be.!<

!Finally, the Father strolls in, with the big man himself in tow, and at this point I realized we were royally screwed. Thankfully, my heavy investment in rhetorics paid off and managed to keep Tharaêl's loyalty. The next revelations were not quite what I expected, still very shocking, as I always wondered how Tharaêl managed to go from a sickly kid to a formidable Rhalâim. But if this was the game's attempt to make me betray my man Tharaêl, well, let the Black Guardian take the Father. No matter if he had bigger motives to experiment on all those children, "for the greater good", as he would claim. His sins are unforgivable and comparable to all those inhuman scientists and governments in our world who experimented on people against their will for the sake of technology advancement.!<

!I realized the final piece of the puzzle at the very last moment. Brother Sorrow, he was Letho all along. My heart went out for Tharaêl as he pleaded with his former big brother to bring him to reason. But I was still anxious, if I could manually control my Prophetess's actions, my hands would've been twitching in anticipation like a veteran gunslinger to draw the first arrow at lightning speed and shoot it at whoever made the first move at my friend. Truth be told though, I was more nervous to fight Brother Sorrow than the Father. Being a squishy archer, I dread fighting 2 handed brutes the most, with wild mages being a close second. I can dodge spells and mitigate the damage with magic resistant potions, but if a Vandal closes the distance and i dont get my shield up in time, I get one shot or within an death execution range.!<

!But Brother Wrath stayed true to his name and massacred Letho's husk in a fit of fury with a beautiful twin blade execution. I cheered loudly ngl, and the fight against the Father went pretty smoothly with my Rhalâim phantasm and rogue skills cutting off his routes of escape. But did we really have a chance against a centuries old warlock or whatever he is? It's like the Father was indulging us as a side diversion, as we're defeated in one blow like a lion swatting away a cub.!<

!When I found Tharaêl at the edge of the cliff, I knew what was coming. Not only did we fail to kill the Father, but he succeded in his goal, and all of Tharaêl's struggles were in vain. I tried to reason with him, that he may still try to atone for everything he's done, and what Tharaêl said next plunged a dagger deep into my heart. He called me a hypocrite, because I was trying to save him when I had no mercy for the likes of Qalian. I could just watch hopeless as he stretched out his arms and plunged into the abyss below. I wanted to reach out so bad and take him by his hand, but it was all for naught. I was so tempted to reload a save and do things differently, but that's not how life works. We can't take back the actions we take or words we say, we just carry the weight of our decisions and live with them. Maybe you might not have been the most likable or relatable person, a ray of sunshine, as my Prophetess sarcastically put it. But I still think your life could have amounted to something more. Tell me, could I have saved him? By showing mercy to Qalian and maybe even Sister Pride, to show him that I fully believe in second chances even for the likes of him. Maybe, just maybe, we could've been broken together, as cheesy and sappy as it sounds.!<

!All I could say was... I'm so sorry, Tharaêl. I failed you.!<

Is it common knowledge that you can tell the bank teller that you have a shareholder, then exit the convo before he finishes, drop the shareholder book and after he finishes pick it back up then repeat for infinite shareholder money? If you didn’t, there you go infinite (but slow) money grind lol.

I’m going for a Dark Keeper build, currently focusing more on doing damage with direct damage spells vs summoning weapons. How much should I invest in health vs mana? I’m currently putting an even amount in each

This is super weird to me, a few seconds inside and 5 crime gold is added for no reason I can think of

Part of something momentous I

I've come back from seeing the young sorceress and I'm supposed to see Constantine, but he won't leave his study Already waited 2 days and nul Is this how it supposed to work or is it a bug?
